Lu Mingfei, why are you slaying dragons if you're not involved!

Chapter 234 You've become stronger, but the game you most wanted to win is over.
"Do all individuals within the region resonate with my emotions?"

Lu Mingfei scratched his head. The effect description was equivalent to a crowd control skill in a game, which was exactly what he lacked. As for how to use it... his first thought was—

Pain can be considered an emotion, right?

Emotions, feelings, and emotions are, of course, included.

If someone experiences an emotional resonance at the same time as they receive an electric shock, wouldn't that maximize the psychological damage?!

Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei couldn't help but shudder. That pain was deeply etched into his soul, even reaching the level of PTSD. Even after experiencing it so many times, he could not forget it or adapt to it.

The other individuals affected will definitely be unable to withstand it; the effect will be absolutely outstanding!

The only problem is that to launch this move, you also have to get electrocuted, which is like hurting the enemy a thousand times while losing eight hundred of your own.

The extra two hundred is because he can adapt and recover from that state more quickly... What Seven Injury Fist - Mental Version? It still has side effects that can't be avoided, so it's unusable!
It would be amazing if we could use a method similar to "recalling memories" instead of real-time sharing.

Putting aside the electric shocks, simply sharing your own past feelings of being at your lowest point and generating resonance is enough to force them into a negative, decadent, and complacent state of just waiting to die!

Although it might not seem like there's anything to be proud of, Lu Mingfei felt that when he was down on his luck, probably few could compare to him...

"Why don't we give it a try?" Lu Mingfei was itching to try.

He always couldn't wait to use any new vocabulary he acquired. Partly it was out of novelty, like wanting to play with a new toy; and partly it was to have a better understanding of how to use it in actual combat later.

But he held back. He could trust Liu Miaomiao in the practice room, but Aunt Shanshan was also there.

It's not good to involve Aunt Shan Shan, who is an ordinary person, in something involving supernatural powers.

In comparison, there are more suitable targets.

The hour hand of the quartz clock slowly rotated to the mark corresponding to "10". Almost at the same time, a semi-transparent message appeared: "Warning: It's time to go home."

"That's about it for today, I need to go meet up with my girlfriends..."

Aunt Shanshan stood up as if she were sitting on pins and needles. She felt like a giant light bulb in the practice room.

But as a teacher, I can't just let my students run wild, can I? They started sucking their fingers when I was only gone for a short while. If I leave them out any longer, who knows what kind of trouble they might cause!
Thinking of this, she earnestly gave him further instructions.

"Remember to get some rest early tonight! Don't get involved in any miscellaneous things. Tomorrow night's piano concert is very important, you know? I got that qualification by using my reputation to vouch for you. A concert of this caliber would be the best choice for your debut performance!"

"Okay, okay..."

Lu Mingfei nodded repeatedly. He really wanted to say that Aunt Shanshan had misunderstood everything, and that he was a cowardly and lustful person who wouldn't do anything wrong. But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that even if he said that, Aunt Shanshan probably wouldn't believe him.

Heaven knows what image I've become in the minds of these beautiful aunties who love gossip so much that even Senior Brother Chu has been influenced by them and picked up their gossipy nature? Once a stereotype is formed, it's really hard to change.

"Of course, there's no need to be too nervous. Although it's called an 'international' event, it's actually just a large-scale charity concert that has invited some internationally renowned pianists to perform. Some of them will also choose to have their students perform to raise their profile."

Seeing that the threat of the "big stick" had achieved its effect, Aunt Shanshan decided to give a "carrot" to ease the tension a little.

"Didn't you see I'm going to have drinks and a party with my girlfriends later? If that concert were really that important, I wouldn't be doing this..."

"So that's it..."

Lu Mingfei nodded, seemingly enlightened, but in his heart he thought to himself, "If you believe Aunt Shanshan, you're asking for trouble."

Although he had never directly attended the gatherings of the pretty aunties, he had still gleaned some relevant information from snippets of conversation from Chu Zihang—

The so-called drinking party was more about chatting and gossiping than actually drinking! All four beautiful aunties, except for Su Xiaoyan, possessed unique skills and had jobs. And as everyone knows, most jobs require interpersonal skills, which inevitably leads to encounters with all sorts of extraordinary people, providing plenty of fodder for gossip.
Su Xiaoyan doesn't work, so she doesn't have much to talk about. However, she's the only one in the group of aunties with a son, so she only needs to show off her son to her girlfriends.

Chu Zihang didn't elaborate on this point, but when he mentioned it, Lu Mingfei's expression clearly stiffened. It was obvious that being treated as the "group's darling" when he was young and powerless to resist had left him with some psychological trauma...

In short, it is foreseeable that once Aunt Shanshan goes to the party, what he did tonight will spread among the aunties, and then it will be Chu Ba Po who finds out... No, I have to get the big gossip about Senior Brother Chu as soon as possible. If I don't have it, I have to figure out a way to get it out. Otherwise, won't I always be "controlled by others"?
……

Chu Zihang stood ramrod straight against the wall, his freshly dried hair a little fluffy, looking like it was all frizzy. This was his nightly bedtime routine after showering; standing against the wall was good for his spine.

It's true that mixed-race individuals are less likely to suffer from various diseases compared to ordinary people, but there's still a certain probability. It's like robots of different qualities; the more expensive ones use more durable materials, are stronger, more elastic, and more corrosion-resistant, but that doesn't mean they're absolutely problem-free. Slightly different from before, this time Chu Zihang, standing against the wall, wasn't holding a book, but a mobile phone. The phone was on the text message editing page; the recipient had been selected, but the message content remained undecided, written and deleted repeatedly.

This is not in line with Chu Zihang's character. He has always been extremely decisive in his actions, and once he makes a decision, he will carry it out.

Such execution and determination would be among the best even in the "talent-rich" executive department of Kassel College. Coupled with his "flammable and explosive" Word Spirit: Monarch Flame, he had actually caused quite a few troubles in the past, but they were all covered up.

But this time Chu Zihang hesitated, for a simple reason: he couldn't make a decision.

As children, people often learn and develop their understanding through judging things as right or wrong. However, not every situation has a clear right or wrong answer, which leads to choices. When they truly grasp this, they begin to grow up.

Because of worries, anxieties, entanglements, regrets... these inevitably follow.

Chu Zihang has made many choices, but the most unforgettable one is still deeply etched in his mind, and he recalls it every day.

Odin was not an opponent he could defeat at that time, and if he had chosen to stay, everything would have ended on that day.

Now, after so much time, he has become stronger and has gained powerful brothers. He finally sees the possibility of defeating that formidable enemy.

But the game he most wanted to win was already over.

Time cannot be reversed, but regret will always remain.

Having experienced this regret, Chu Zihang found it even more difficult to make a decision on this matter.

To be fair, Susie is a very good and excellent girl. Chu Zihang actually felt very comfortable with her, otherwise they wouldn't have gotten so close that rumors of a romance between them would have circulated at Kassel College... But he carefully kept her under control because he had things he had to do.

Even facing a near-death experience might be a luxury, but he had to go.

Therefore, it's better to prevent another tragedy from happening in the first place.

But now the situation has changed drastically... Ultimately, it all comes down to Lu Mingfei. His good brother's strength is simply too overwhelming, and it seems this is only the beginning. Even with Chu Zihang's most cautious assessment, he has to come to one conclusion—the probability of success has greatly increased.

It's not that Chu Zihang would relax and focus on dating under these circumstances. Given his personality, he would naturally continue to bury himself in his work as an ascetic. However, subconsciously, for the first time, he felt somewhat lost about the long blank period of his life that would emerge after the event was over, unsure of how to plan for it.

Before this, his life consisted only of revenge, and after the revenge ended, there was only emptiness and nothingness. Because he never thought his chances of success were high; he was just a runaway child who wanted to go back to that place and continue what he should have continued long ago.

It would be good if he could succeed, after all, he still had his mother to take care of. What would happen to her if he were gone? Chu Zihang couldn't even imagine it himself.

He subconsciously tried not to think about it.

However, with his deal with Nono, he could no longer subconsciously escape.

"Little Witch" is truly a person who can see through people's hearts. Her crazy and eccentric behavior on weekdays probably just means that she doesn't think there's anything interesting worth getting excited about. But when she makes a move, it's a fatal blow... She perfectly grasped Chu Zihang's personality. The deal that didn't happen this time was actually already made when she said it.

He had been standing against the wall for almost enough time, but Chu Zihang still hadn't figured out what message to send to Su Qian. In fact, he still hadn't figured out how to treat Su Qian, let alone how to plan for the large blank period of his life that might suddenly appear.

He walked to the bedside, lay down, paused slightly with his fingers, felt a wave of drowsiness wash over him, and finally made his decision.

"Tomorrow at noon..."

He typed.

He typed very fast, finished editing the message, and was about to press the send button, his thumb already exerting force... The drowsiness that had been just a wisp suddenly intensified, not in a gradual increase, but in an instant, like a tidal wave piling up and engulfing him!
Chu Zihang's vision went black as he fell into a deep sleep, his phone falling to the side.

The doorknob was pressed down slightly, and a girl in a black combat suit sneaked in with a strong sense of stealth.

"It's so great to be young! You've recovered so quickly! Come on, let me see!"

The girl rubbed her hands together as she approached the bedside, sizing up Chu Zihang lying on the bed. Her tone and demeanor were exactly like that of a philandering thief preparing to seduce a beauty who had been drugged and knocked unconscious on the bed... But after a moment, her gaze quickly fell on the phone with its screen lit up, and she saw the contents.

"Oh?"
